Actually, I've just returned recently from an extended fishing/summer vacation, and I'm excited about playing and getting back in the saddle again.

I've noticed a few major changes with the game already, however. Apparently, we are now down to only one server...? The 'central server'. When did that happen..? So, they dropped the east and west servers...why...?

Honestly, I don't expect to win every battle, but I certainly don't like to lose every battle either...especially when I'm simply trying to grind and win my x2 for the day. So, I see nothing wrong with a 50/50 outcome, more or less.

On that note...

*I sincerely hope that Wargaming does not forget to put FUN as the #1 priority for its player base. And I don't claim to know much about their proprietary matchmaker, but I do know that ridiculously long losing streaks are NOT fun. So if they can somehow figure out how to fix that issue and balance the matches a bit better to avoid those long and dreadful losing steaks that would be even better. Because nobody likes long losing streaks...especially when we are trying our hardest to win our x2 for the day, while grinding a tank.

Touche, but WG needs to put them pennies ahead of anything else if they want to stay in business (or so their market research seems to say..)

I definitely agree with you about the losing streak thing, but it seems to be a bit strange for me lately. My stats on my Lorraine artillery are super high because I'm always able to put out above 1k damage on it but until recently by winrate was like 38%. But, recently, my winrate has soared upwards and now I seem to be on the stomproll teams a lot.

Yea I just got a 5 game losing streak and lost my 70% WR on my emil, it's 60% now. I don't think I was useful in 2 of those games but at least one of those 5 games was winnable. Maybe I should have fallen back. That's probably what I should have done.

I don't think my team is to blame for me losing 5 games in a row, I had to of messed up somewhere.

Just getting up in the morning and starting my wonderful day... I consider that a win...

Makes you a winner in my book.

Got my first senior discount at Whataburger while visiting my Dad, a free glass of Iced Tea. With my advancing arthritis, I'm starting to empathize more with others limitations although I'm still not ready to concede my own.

Thanks Dude...

Sorry to hear about your arthritis, mine gets really bad this time of year, too. Just hang in there, and do what you can. And never give up!

On that note....

I've been coming to terms with my physical limitations for a while now, but I'm not letting it define me. I know that with my failing/aging eyesight, poor dexterity, and increasingly slow reflexes, my gaming {among many other things...} is only going to get worse as time goes by, but again, that still doesn't keep me from trying once in a while.

*Oh, and I had a huge milestone the other day. I finally made it to 3000 battles, Yeah!

*Is anyone else out there having problems with private messages/content disappearing in their garage..? My contacts list finally seems to be working better, however, my private messages now have a shelf life about as long as Moscovium, before they vanish into the cyber universe and disappear forever.

I'm not even sure if my contacts are even receiving any of my messages, because whenever I try to send a garage message to ask them if they are getting my messages, I get no response. And then, the next time I log in, the content within my message box disappears from my garage. And I'm not deleting anything, so I guess they aren't getting my messages.
